ABSTRACT

A capsule (1) having at least one first construction element (2) configured in a container-like shape, and a second construction element (3) configured in a lid-like shape, adapted so as to contain an individual portion of an edible substance. The second construction element (3) presents a passageway wall (4) provided as a recess region and surrounded in at least most part of respective perimeter by a weakened material region (41) provided as a reduction of thickness in the upstream side and downstream side of said passageway wall (4). The capsule is used with an apparatus for preparing edible products comprising at least one brewing device (10) presenting injection means (13) adapted so that exert a mechanic pressure upon the passageway wall (4) on a region of the passageway wall (4) opposite to the region of weakened material region (41).

FIELD OF THE INVENTION

The present invention refers to the field of the capsules for preparing edible products including aromatic beverages, such s for example espresso coffee, tea and similar.

The present invention further refers to a system for preparing edible products based upon capsules.

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

The prior art includes several solutions relating to systems for preparing beverages, such as for example machines for preparing beverages including espresso coffee, tea and similar, based upon capsules containing a single portion of edible substance and provided so that are collected inside of a brewing device. Said brewing device is adapted so as to inject a pressurized fluid flow through an upstream side of capsule, and to collect the resulting beverage from a downstream side of capsule.

In particular in the case of capsules provided in a substantially rigid material and construction structure, despite being retained by means of pressured engagement inside of a respective brewing device, this type of capsules can slip a direction transversal to the prevailing flow direction, notably in a rotation movement around its axial axis, in particular in case that the pressurized water injection is not done by means of penetration of the capsule envelope. In fact, in the case of brewing devices with multiple pressurized water injection outlets, there is the need to ensure that a capsule of this type is retained in reliable manner, and eventually positioned on a given angular position, inside of a respective brewing device.

The document EP 2287090 B1 discloses a capsule comprising a container part with a base wall that presents a structure that forms a reduced thickness of entry wall of the pressurized fluid. In particular, said structure forms a continuous annular recess portion of radius R1 where there is provided a plurality of injection holes.

The document EP 2394932 B1 discloses a capsule similar to that of the aforementioned document, whereby in this case there is provided a weakened material region designed such that breaks at least partially under the pressure of a pressurized liquid. Moreover, the body of the capsule is made of plastic or from a plastic based material.

The document EP 2560897 B1 discloses a capsule comprising a container part with a base wall that presents a weakened material zone that defines a wall part that can be broken, and a portion of greater thickness of said base wall around which the wall part that can be broken turns.

The document EP 2757057 A1 discloses a capsule that presents a groove that surrounds a central region that presents at least perforation zone with perforations that provide an entry of hot water into the interior of capsule.

The document WO 2015/002562 A1 submitted by the author of the present application discloses a capsule comprising a lid-like element that presents at least one engagement groove disposed such that is surrounded by, or itself surrounds, a zone of said second construction element adapted for fluid passage.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

As can be observed in FIG. 1, a capsule of the type of capsule (1) includes a first construction element (2) configured in a container-like shape and a second construction element (3) configured in a lid-like shape. Said first and second construction elements (2, 3) are provided as substantially rigid, for example in a plastic material, and adapted for joint assembly along a common central axis (X) of said capsule (1), thereby providing an interior volume adapted for collection of a single portion of at least one edible substance, such as for example roasted ground coffee beans.

Optionally, there can be provided a recess region (5) on the upstream-oriented side, of annular shape and eventually presenting a weakened material region.

As can be observed in FIG. 2, in the case of a capsule (1) according to the present invention, a second construction element (3) presents a wall part (31) that presents a disk-like general shape and a passageway wall (4) provided as a region that is recessed relative to the exterior surface planes of said entry wall part (31).

In the case of a first embodiment of said capsule (1), said passageway wall (4) presents a passageway wall thickness (e₄) that corresponds to a reduction of thickness of the prevailing wall thickness (e₃₁) of said entry wall part (31), provided in a region of circular shape and on both sides of said entry wall part (31), so that said passageway wall (4) develops in a intercalary plane between the exterior surfaces oriented upstream and downstream of said entry wall part (31). Moreover, it is preferred when at least the downstream surrounding walls, preferentially also the upstream surrounding walls of said passageway wall (4), develop along an oblique direction relative to the direction of said axial axis (X).

Said passageway wall part (4) presents a weakened material region (41) that develops along at least most part of said first circumferential alignment and that is adapted so that breaks under a given upstream pressure.

The second construction element (3) of said capsule (1) further presents a recess region (5) provided on the upstream oriented side of said entry wall part (31), whereby said recess region (5) develops from a second circumferential alignment in the proximity of said passageway wall (4) and so that results an intercalary region (6) between said recess region (5) and said passageway wall (4), whereby said recess region (5) presents a recess wall thickness (e₅) that is smaller than the prevailing wall thickness (e₃₁), and bigger than the passageway wall thickness (e₄) of said passageway wall (4), so that said passageway wall (4) is deflected under the pressurized flow so that breaks said weakened material region (41).

The second construction element (3) of said capsule (1) further presents an intercalary region (6) that presents an intercalary wall thickness (e₆) that is bigger than the passageway wall thickness (e₄) of said passageway wall (4) and bigger than the recess wall thickness (e₅) of said recess region (5), preferentially is at least approximately similar to said prevailing wall thickness (e₃₁), thereby improving the transmission of structural resistance from said recess region (5) and to said weakened material region (41).

Moreover, said passageway wall (4) is provided as a reduction of said prevailing wall thickness (e₃₁) in a region of circular shape and centred relative to the centre (X) of said entry wall part (31), and said weakened material region (41) is provided between said prevailing wall thickness (e₃₁) and said passageway wall thickness (e₄).

It is further preferred when said passageway wall (4) is provided closer to the upstream oriented surface than from the downstream oriented surface of said flow entry wall part (31).

According to another inventive aspect—see FIGS. 3 to 6—said weakened material region (41) is provided as the region between two recesses in opposite sides of said passageway wall (4), whereby said recesses presents at least one of different shape and different dimension relative to the remaining passageway wall (41).

It is preferred when said weakened material region (41) is provided as the region between two recesses in opposite sides of said passageway wall (4), developing along a circumferential alignment of at least approximately similar dimension, whereby said recesses distant from each other in the closest region between each other in the value corresponding to said weakened thickness (e₄₁).

It is preferred when said weakened material region (41) is provided as the region between two recesses in opposite sides of said passageway wall (4), whereby said recesses presents different depths relative to the surface planes of the respective sides of said passageway wall (4), and said maximum depths develop in different projections along planes parallel to said axial axis (X).

It is further particularly preferred when said weakened material region (41) is provided as the region between two recesses in opposite sides of said passageway wall (4), whereby the recesses disposed on the upstream side develop at least partially on a more proximal region than the recesses disposed on the upstream oriented side, with reference to said axial axis (x) of said passageway wall (4).

According to another inventive aspect—see FIGS. 5 and 6—, said weakened material region (41) is provided as the region between two recesses in opposite sides of said passageway wall (4) and presenting at least one oblique surface relative to the direction of said axial axis (X), whereby in the region closest to each other said recesses configure two surfaces oblique relative to the direction of said axial axis (X), and that develop at least approximately parallel along a preferential rupture extension that presents said weakened thickness (e₄₁) and develops in oblique manner relative to the direction of said axial axis (X).

It is preferred when said passageway wall (4) is surrounded downstream by a wall that extends beyond the plane defined by the wall thickness (e₃) of said flow entry wall part (31) so that deflects the pressurized flow through the weakened material region (41), and in that at least said downstream surrounding wall, preferentially also an upstream surrounding wall of said passageway wall (4), develop along an oblique direction relative to the direction of said axial axis (X).
